Leaves Lille

Mandi has left Lille after his contract with the club expired.

Analysis: Mandi made 29 appearances for Lille in Ligue 1 last season, starting 28 of them and playing 2,427 minutes while scoring one goal, and was named the club's player of the season for 2025/26. The 34 year old center back, who is also Algeria's most capped player of all time, arrived at Lille in 2024 from Villarreal and now becomes a free agent as he searches for his next club.

Concedes twice to exit World Cup

Mandi had one tackle (one won), two clearances and two interceptions in Thursday's 2-0 loss versus Switzerland.

Analysis: Mandi was unable to help his team prevent Switzerland from scoring two and their World Cup has come to an end at the Round of 32 stage. Mandi won his only tackle, made two interceptions and two clearances in the game. For the first Switzerland goal, he was dribbled past too easily by Johan Manzambi, who was able to tee up Breel Embolo for the first goal.
